Lone Mountain Families,
Last week an information sheet came home with your child on how to register and update elements within PowerSchool- our student information system. Please make sure that you register/login and update the annual elements if you have not done so already, as these are needed pieces of information for the school and district. Our goal is to have these completed by the end of the week so that we can make sure we have accurate and up to date information for all of our students. Thank you for your assistance with this.
You may have heard me say it before or read it in our newsletter but we can not do this work at our schools without you. It truly takes a village to support our students. I, as your proud principal, am looking for business, faith, and government leaders, along with parents, and community members to join me in partnering together to support the vision and mission of LMES. In November, as a District, we will be hosting a meeting where we bring together all of these partners and talk about the amazing things going on at our schools and how our partners can help support the schools. This is not a big commitment, just an opportunity to continue making a positive impact on LMES and CCUSD. Please email me at ehill@ccusd93.net if you are interested in joining this group.
I wish you all a wonderful week and if there is anything that I may do for you or your child please do not hesitate to contact me.
Respectfully, Emily Hill

"SOAR" EXPECTATIONS AT LONE MOUNTAIN
This year we continue with our positive behavior interventions and "SOAR" expectations for students to follow in the classroom and around campus. The acronym SOAR stands for Safety, Ownership for your actions/words, Attitude, and Respect. These are character traits that we talk about daily within the classrooms and around campus. When these specific traits are shown staff members can give each student a SOAR card that they label with their name and then drop into a raffle for a monthly prize drawing.
Each week we also celebrate student behavior success with our Eagle Awards. Students are nominated weekly by their teachers and celebrated with an award of recognition.

JOIN K- KIDS AND HELP OUR SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY
K-Kids Club at Lone Mountain Elementary School
● Are you looking for a way to help out our community?
● Would you like to work with classmates to help make our school an even better place to be each day?
● Would you enjoy becoming a leader while serving those around you?
Last year, the K-Kids Club was very busy. We held a variety of drives for food, socks, and toiletries. We volunteered at the Kiwanis Marketplace. We painted the Littlest Library in front of our school. We collected recycling for the teachers. We served snacks at Movie Night. We came in one weekend and painted the stairs.
If you are a fifth or sixth grader and would like to join us in serving others while still having fun, K-Kids Club would love to see you at our next meeting. We meet on Thursdays at 8:00 in Mrs. Hale’s classroom. We’re looking forward to a great year!
If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Hale at khale@ccusd93.net

From the classroom to the playground, learning at Lone Mountain is always fun! This week's pictures focus on teamwork. Whether it be reading with partners for fluency, identifying even and odd numbers, or designing a paper chain to be the longest as part of the engineering design process working with classmates always sparks new conversations and ideas.
